Exodus 32 (NET) New English Translation

1 When the people saw that Moses delayed in coming down from the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said to him, "Get up, make us gods that will go before us. As for this fellow Moses, the man who brought us up from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him!"
2 So Aaron said to them, "Break off the gold earrings that are on the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me."
3 So all the people broke off the gold earrings that were on their ears and brought them to Aaron.
4 He accepted the gold from them, fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made a molten calf. Then they said, "These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt."
5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it, and Aaron made a proclamation and said, "Tomorrow will be a feast to the LORD."
6 So they got up early on the next day and offered up burnt offerings and brought peace offerings, and the people sat down to eat and drink, and they rose up to play.
7 The LORD spoke to Moses: "Go quickly, descend, because your people, whom you brought up from the land of Egypt, have acted corruptly.
8 They have quickly turned aside from the way that I commanded them� they have made for themselves a molten calf and have bowed down to it and sacrificed to it and said, 'These are your gods, O Israel, which brought you up from the land of Egypt.'"
9 Then the LORD said to Moses: "I have seen this people. Look what a stiff-necked people they are!
10 So now, leave me alone so that my anger can burn against them and I can destroy them, and I will make from you a great nation."
11 But Moses sought the favor of the LORD his God and said, "O LORD, why does your anger burn against your people, whom you have brought out from the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?
12 Why should the Egyptians say, 'For evil he led them out to kill them in the mountains and to destroy them from the face of the earth'? Turn from your burning anger, and relent of this evil against your people.
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel your servants, to whom you swore by yourself and told them, 'I will multiply your descendants like the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken about I will give to your descendants, and they will inherit it forever.'"
14 Then the LORD relented over the evil that he had said he would do to his people.
15 Moses turned and went down from the mountain with the two tablets of the testimony in his hands. The tablets were written on both sides� they were written on the front and on the back.
16 Now the tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tablets.
17 When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, "It is the sound of war in the camp!"
18 Moses said, "It is not the sound of those who shout for victory, nor is it the sound of those who cry because they are overcome, but the sound of singing I hear."
19 When he approached the camp and saw the calf and the dancing, Moses became extremely angry. He threw the tablets from his hands and broke them to pieces at the bottom of the mountain.
20 He took the calf they had made and burned it in the fire, ground it to powder, poured it out on the water, and made the Israelites drink it.
21 Moses said to Aaron, "What did this people do to you, that you have brought on them so great a sin?"
22 Aaron said, "Do not let your anger burn hot, my lord; you know these people, that they tend to evil.
23 They said to me, 'Make us gods that will go before us, for as for this fellow Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him.'
24 So I said to them, 'Whoever has gold, break it off.' So they gave it to me, and I threw it into the fire, and this calf came out."
25 Moses saw that the people were running wild, for Aaron had let them get completely out of control, causing derision from their enemies.
26 So Moses stood at the entrance of the camp and said, "Whoever is for the LORD, come to me." All the Levites gathered around him,
27 and he said to them, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, 'Each man fasten his sword on his side, and go back and forth from entrance to entrance throughout the camp, and each one kill his brother, his friend, and his neighbor.'"
28 The Levites did what Moses ordered, and that day about three thousand men of the people died.
29 Moses said, "You have been consecrated today for the LORD, for each of you was against his son or against his brother, so he has given a blessing to you today."
30 The next day Moses said to the people, "You have committed a very serious sin, but now I will go up to the LORD� perhaps I can make atonement on behalf of your sin."
31 So Moses returned to the LORD and said, "Alas, this people has committed a very serious sin, and they have made for themselves gods of gold.
32 But now, if you will forgive their sin�, but if not, wipe me out from your book that you have written."
33 The LORD said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against me� that person I will wipe out of my book.
34 So now go, lead the people to the place I have spoken to you about. See, my angel will go before you. But on the day that I punish, I will indeed punish them for their sin."
35 And the LORD sent a plague on the people because they had made the calf� the one Aaron made.
1 And when the people H5971 saw H7200 that H3588 Moses H4872 delayed H954 to come down H3381 out of H4480 the mount, H2022 the people H5971 gathered themselves together H6950 unto H5921 Aaron, H175 and said H559 unto H413 him, Up, H6965 make H6213 us gods, H430 which H834 shall go H1980 before H6440 us; for H3588 as for this H2088 Moses, H4872 the man H376 that H834 brought us up H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt, H4714 we know H3045 not H3808 what H4100 is become H1961 of him.
2 And Aaron H175 said H559 unto H413 them , Break off H6561 the golden H2091 earrings, H5141 which H834 are in the ears H241 of your wives, H802 of your sons, H1121 and of your daughters, H1323 and bring H935 them unto H413 me.
3 And all H3605 the people H5971 broke off H6561 H853 the golden H2091 earrings H5141 which H834 were in their ears, H241 and brought H935 them unto H413 Aaron. H175
4 And he received H3947 them at their hand H4480 H3027 , and fashioned H6696 it with a graving tool, H2747 after he had made H6213 it a molten H4541 calf: H5695 and they said, H559 These H428 be thy gods, H430 O Israel, H3478 which H834 brought thee up H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt. H4714
5 And when Aaron H175 saw H7200 it , he built H1129 an altar H4196 before H6440 it ; and Aaron H175 made proclamation, H7121 and said, H559 Tomorrow H4279 is a feast H2282 to the LORD. H3068
6 And they rose up early H7925 on the morrow H4480 H4283 , and offered H5927 burnt offerings, H5930 and brought H5066 peace offerings; H8002 and the people H5971 sat down H3427 to eat H398 and to drink, H8354 and rose up H6965 to play. H6711
7 And the LORD H3068 said H1696 unto H413 Moses, H4872 Go, H1980 get thee down; H3381 for H3588 thy people, H5971 which H834 thou broughtest H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt, H4714 have corrupted H7843 themselves :
8 They have turned aside H5493 quickly H4118 out of H4480 the way H1870 which H834 I commanded H6680 them : they have made H6213 them a molten H4541 calf, H5695 and have worshiped H7812 it , and have sacrificed H2076 thereunto , and said, H559 These H428 be thy gods, H430 O Israel, H3478 which H834 have brought thee up H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt. H4714
9 And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Moses, H4872 I have seen H7200 H853 this H2088 people, H5971 and, behold, H2009 it H1931 is a stiffnecked H7186 H6203 people: H5971
10 Now H6258 therefore let me alone, H5117 that my wrath H639 may wax hot H2734 against them , and that I may consume H3615 them : and I will make H6213 of thee a great H1419 nation. H1471
11 And Moses H4872 besought H2470 H853 the LORD H3068 his God, H430 and said, H559 LORD, H3068 why H4100 doth thy wrath H639 wax hot H2734 against thy people, H5971 which H834 thou hast brought forth H3318 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 with great H1419 power, H3581 and with a mighty H2389 hand H3027 ?
12 Wherefore H4100 should the Egyptians H4714 speak, H559 and say, H559 For mischief H7451 did he bring them out, H3318 to slay H2026 them in the mountains, H2022 and to consume H3615 them from H4480 H5921 the face H6440 of the earth H127 ? Turn H7725 from thy fierce wrath H4480 H2740, H639 and repent H5162 of H5921 this evil H7451 against thy people. H5971
13 Remember H2142 Abraham, H85 Isaac, H3327 and Israel, H3478 thy servants, H5650 to whom H834 thou sworest H7650 by thine own self , and saidst H1696 unto H413 them , I will multiply H7235 H853 your seed H2233 as the stars H3556 of heaven, H8064 and all H3605 this H2063 land H776 that H834 I have spoken H559 of will I give H5414 unto your seed, H2233 and they shall inherit H5157 it forever. H5769
14 And the LORD H3068 repented H5162 of H5921 the evil H7451 which H834 he thought H1696 to do H6213 unto his people. H5971
15 And Moses H4872 turned, H6437 and went down H3381 from H4480 the mount, H2022 and the two H8147 tables H3871 of the testimony H5715 were in his hand: H3027 the tables H3871 were written H3789 on both H4480 H8147 their sides; H5676 on the one side H4480 H2088 and on the other H4480 H2088 were they H1992 written. H3789
16 And the tables H3871 were the work H4639 of God, H430 and the writing H4385 was the writing H4385 of God, H430 graven H2801 upon H5921 the tables. H3871
17 And when Joshua H3091 heard H8085 H853 the noise H6963 of the people H5971 as they shouted, H7452 he said H559 unto H413 Moses, H4872 There is a noise H6963 of war H4421 in the camp. H4264
18 And he said, H559 It is not H369 the voice H6963 of them that shout H6030 for mastery, H1369 neither H369 is it the voice H6963 of them that cry H6030 for being overcome: H2476 but the noise H6963 of them that sing H6031 do I H595 hear. H8085
19 And it came to pass, H1961 as soon as H834 he came nigh H7126 unto H413 the camp, H4264 that he saw H7200 H853 the calf, H5695 and the dancing: H4246 and Moses' H4872 anger H639 waxed hot, H2734 and he cast H7993 H853 the tables H3871 out of his hands H4480 H3027 , and broke H7665 them beneath H8478 the mount. H2022
20 And he took H3947 H853 the calf H5695 which H834 they had made, H6213 and burnt H8313 it in the fire, H784 and ground H2912 it to H5704 powder H834 H1854 , and strewed H2219 it upon H5921 H6440 the water, H4325 and made H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 drink H8248 of it .
21 And Moses H4872 said H559 unto H413 Aaron, H175 What H4100 did H6213 this H2088 people H5971 unto thee, that H3588 thou hast brought H935 so great H1419 a sin H2401 upon H5921 them?
22 And Aaron H175 said, H559 Let not H408 the anger H639 of my lord H113 wax hot: H2734 thou H859 knowest H3045 H853 the people, H5971 that H3588 they H1931 are set on mischief. H7451
23 For they said H559 unto me, Make H6213 us gods, H430 which H834 shall go H1980 before H6440 us: for H3588 as for this H2088 Moses, H4872 the man H376 that H834 brought us up H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt, H4714 we know H3045 not H3808 what H4100 is become H1961 of him.
24 And I said H559 unto them, Whosoever H4310 hath any gold, H2091 let them break it off. H6561 So they gave H5414 it me : then I cast H7993 it into the fire, H784 and there came out H3318 this H2088 calf. H5695
25 And when Moses H4872 saw H7200 that H3588 H853 the people H5971 were naked; H6544 ( for H3588 Aaron H175 had made them naked H6544 unto their shame H8103 among their enemies: H6965 )
26 Then Moses H4872 stood H5975 in the gate H8179 of the camp, H4264 and said, H559 Who H4310 is on the LORD's H3068 side? let him come unto H413 me . And all H3605 the sons H1121 of Levi H3878 gathered themselves together H622 unto H413 him.
27 And he said H559 unto them, Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel, H3478 Put H7760 every man H376 his sword H2719 by H5921 his side, H3409 and go in H5674 and out H7725 from gate H4480 H8179 to gate H8179 throughout the camp, H4264 and slay H2026 every man H376 H853 his brother, H251 and every man H376 H853 his companion, H7453 and every man H376 H853 his neighbor. H7138
28 And the children H1121 of Levi H3878 did H6213 according to the word H1697 of Moses: H4872 and there fell H5307 of H4480 the people H5971 that H1931 day H3117 about three H7969 thousand H505 men. H376
29 For Moses H4872 had said, H559 Consecrate H4390 H3027 yourselves today H3117 to the LORD, H3068 even H3588 every man H376 upon his son, H1121 and upon his brother; H251 that he may bestow H5414 upon H5921 you a blessing H1293 this day. H3117
30 And it came to pass H1961 on the morrow H4480 H4283 , that Moses H4872 said H559 unto H413 the people, H5971 Ye H859 have sinned H2398 a great H1419 sin: H2401 and now H6258 I will go up H5927 unto H413 the LORD; H3068 peradventure H194 I shall make an atonement H3722 for H1157 your sin. H2403
31 And Moses H4872 returned H7725 unto H413 the LORD, H3068 and said, H559 Oh, H577 this H2088 people H5971 have sinned H2398 a great H1419 sin, H2401 and have made H6213 them gods H430 of gold. H2091
32 Yet now, H6258 if H518 thou wilt forgive H5375 their sin; H2403 and if H518 not, H369 blot H4229 me , I pray thee, H4994 out of thy book H4480 H5612 which H834 thou hast written. H3789
33 And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Moses, H4872 Whosoever H4310 H834 hath sinned H2398 against me , him will I blot out H4229 of my book H4480 H5612 .
34 Therefore now H6258 go, H1980 lead H5148 H853 the people H5971 unto H413 the place of which H834 I have spoken H1696 unto thee: behold, H2009 mine Angel H4397 shall go H1980 before H6440 thee : nevertheless in the day H3117 when I visit H6485 I will visit H6485 their sin H2403 upon H5921 them.
35 And the LORD H3068 plagued H5062 H853 the people, H5971 because H5921 H834 they made H6213 H853 the calf, H5695 which H834 Aaron H175 made. H6213
